Fields of Gold

I think when Sting wrote the song, 'Fields of Gold,' I'm pretty sure he was talking about crossing the border from Romania into Bulgaria (Bucharest > Veliko Tarnovo), where infinite rows of golden faces stretch as far as the horizon. When you think you've seen the main event, along comes an encore presentation.

 

SIDE NOTE:
Our friend thought it was a bit creepy that all the sunflowers' heads were facing the same direction. If you really think about it, it is kind-of a strange phenomenon. But, what can we say - they like the limelight.

  2. Love the song to those amazing sunflowers...very cool. It reminds me of the time we took a bus to the Pisa in Italy and saw fields of them. :)

    Always so good to hear from you! As the other comments said - the music is perfect for the video!! We feel like we are there with you. We did not see those fields of gold because we were near the Danube when we were in Bulgaria.....enjoy!!
